    A contract is something that proves on paper what has been agreed upon verbally. It can establish the exact agreement and everything you need to know to do business with a client.
    Most people are afraid of having a contract. If something goes wrong during the contract, there is always a chance for you to be sued. Don’t take that risk. Write a contract that will make you feel safer.
    There are a lot of things that can go wrong during the contract and if that happen you have to talk to lawyers. That is one of the reasons that makes most business owners avoid signing a contract.
    Lawyers are not that expensive. You get really good advice quite cheaply. When you start getting huge projects, you can hire a lawyer to sign a contract for a few thousand dollars.
    You have to find the right people to work with. There needs to be trust between you and your lawyer. That will empower you and you will get less afraid of getting bigger projects.
    Here are a few things that a contract can do for you. Everything is written down. You are guaranteed to be paid at the end of the project. Otherwise, your client is taking a risk of getting sued. You are also decreasing your liability.
    A contract gives you a certain level of certainty. You are much less likely to be sued.
    If you want to decrease your fear, increase your certainty and improve your confidence on sales calls, you are going to have to use contracts.
    I value a contract to the same extend as I value an upfront payment.
    You have to be a good communicator and make good deals in advance.
    Don’t miss stuff in your contracts. Take a look at it several times before signing. It will prevent you from going to a court house.
    People are generally very honest. They want to do business together and they do not want to screw each other. A contract just reinforces that.
    Lawyers know how to write contracts. Their words are not a subject of multiple interpretations. They can write in a very specific way that cannot be misunderstood.
    A contract does not need to have all the information. You can leave some things open for communication. But, the main product or service that you are going to deliver needs to be written down in the contract, because it is the most important part of the deal.
    Don’t be afraid of contracts. Make use of this powerful tool. It will definitely help you be safer in your business. It will increase your confidence and will help your business grow.

    Mario has awesome daily health habits, he also runs a successful business.
    He's been a world traveler for 5 years while running a business and going to the gym almost daily.
    Gym and health are an important part of productivity.
    It's all about balance. You don't need 2 hours per day, but you need enough to manage your health, do ENOUGH.
    One push-up is better than 0 push-ups.
    If you're going to travel while running a business, be mindful of your health...
    And if you screw up your health, you will lose productivity and your business will suffer.
    Another way to screw up your health is having a super high carb meal... ever tried working right after? It's HARD.
    -- So how do you recover from losing health and business momentum?
    How to regain the happiness level once you lose it?
    It's a common issue to face this loss of momentum...
    First, get a game plan: get back to the default situation where you can get back work out.
    If you rely on your own abilities to get sales and you're SICK, you are screwed.
    You're the one who's going to need to deliver, sick or not...
    It really pays to stay healthy.
    If you DO lose the momentum, get into it ASAP, small chunk it and then work your way up to your previous level.
    This loss of momentum can happen to anyone... Even celebrities.
    To get an object moving it takes a lot more force than keeping it moving.
    The sooner you can get back on the horse, the better.
    A lot of guys in that situation give up and they completely give up... That's why there's such a low success rate in business.
    We spend a lot of time crouched forward as entrepreneurs. What are some easy daily habits of success that contribute to counter acting this?
    3 times per week resistance training is a MUST.
    Compound movements are a MUST to counteract at least some of the negative effects.
    You pretty much can get anything delivered these days to your place as an entrepreneur.
    When you start moving, all your body processes start going down.
    It's good to automate but balance it out with more physical activity.
    If you're not moving around, you're shifting out of the balanced state and your business will suffer.
    You need to find an hour to go work out, you need an hour for extra other activities.
    The funny thing is, if you sacrifice time to go to the gym, you will do the same amount of work as if you don't...
    It sounds weird but it works (tested).
    Another funny thing about working out; you will come up with better ideas.
    Shower, pool, gym, all places where real hustlers get their ideas.
    You need to take that break so your brain can start thinking in a creative way...
    You need to think in multiple dimensions, not just linear.
    A lot of guys who are doing creative work, we need rest to enhance creativity along with workout.

  • How To Train Yourself To Be Motivated And Passionate - Business Motivation Aleksander Vitkin
    We've been trained from a young age to run wake up on time, go to school on time... Like a dog. Here are the steps to re-train yourself to be a passionate, motivated entrepreneur.
    “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook:
    http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin
    From a very young age we are told what to do and how to do it. Our parents want us to have a daily routine that includes waking up early in the morning, having breakfast and going to school every single day.
    After school ends, you are told that you have to find a job and be there on time. You are trained to perform based on the schedule that the boss gives you.
    Many adult people have nightmares that they have an exam tomorrow and wake up in the middle of the night. What does exam really mean? - A mark on a piece of paper that does not really mean anything.
    Business is completely different from the life ordinary people lead.
    No one can tell you when to wake up, what to do or when to do it. You have all the freedom in the world.
    The main advantage of having your own business is that you are your own boss and you are in control of what happens to you.
    The main disadvantage is the major issue why most business owners fail. You are responsible for your own business. You have to somehow motivate yourself to wake up and start working. Most people cannot wake up and get to work every single day without having someone to push them forward.
    As a business owner you have to make a schedule and follow it no matter what. The discipline that the business owner needs to possess is a very important part of his business success.
    Most people getting into business are still afraid of the alarm clock, but these are just memories from their jobs where they were slaves to the system.
    You have to understand that it is ok for you have a schedule and a calendar that you can follow. That schedule will help you build assets, wealth and will help you create value for your clients.
    Replacing the old bad memories with new ones will make you feel happier and that will contribute to your upward business success.
    Your schedule and creating the system that you have to follow will lead to fewer burn outs and the ability to lead a very successful business.
    It will take a while to replace the bad memories of exams and having to go to a job. Once you manage to replace them with good emotions and your drive that you want to succeed, you will see that you are on the right path to success.
    If you are a business owner you will have more duties than in your job, but it is fun, because it is your choice and you will be able to give something awesome to the world. This is your passion and that is why you have taken the decision to run that business.
    If you are able to overcome the old memories, you will be able to do a lot more with your life than the average person.

  • Why I Work From Anywhere In The World While Running An Online Business 365 Days A Year
    ►If you found this podcast helpful hit Subscribe to support the channel and share the podcast with your friends to spread the word◄

    In this podcast you will learn if it's worth it traveling while running a business online.
    I travel to Los Angeles and walk down Hollywood Boulevard while explaining what my life is like as a digital nomad.
    In a lot of my videos I'm in a new city, new country.
    Why should you travel while running a business online?
    What are the advantages and disadvantages?
    Some people want to see the world, meet different people from different cultures.
    These are all valid reasons, but the main reason why I'm traveling is because I got addicted to traveling.
    It's very addicting to change where you live, the kind of people around you, to be forced to reset your havits over and over, every time you land in a new city.
    So what are the benefits?
    Always going somewhere new insures you don't get bored.
    For me, after 2-3 months in one city becomes quite boring, even in my favorite cities like Valencia (Spain).
    That's what happens if you get SPOILED by traveling non stop.
    Same people, same food, same language, variety really helps me reset myself and embrace the change.
    After traveling for 4 years, for business and fun, I got addicted to traveling.
    Every 2-3 months I go somewhere new.
    I tried staying in Barcelona for 4 months and even there I wanted to leave to go somewhere new.
    If you're forced to re-establish your routines, you are forced to get used to change... You are also automatically getting new routines just because you're always moving.
    You go to a different gym, new classes, you keep growing and improving yourself.
    What are some disadvantages of traveling 365 days a year...
    You can forget normal jobs of course... But you also can't have a normal office or work space.
    You need to either rent one or work from home, an ever-changing home.
    You have to look for places to rent every single time.
    Furthermore, you can't have employees with you unless they travel with you.
    For me, that's an advantage.
    I'm able to work with people online, I don't like offices, I just like the travel life.
    Today I'm in LA, in a few days I'm going to London and Valencia.
    We're going to hang out there with other Daily Business Hustle mastermind members.
    One of the things that I do when I go to a new city, I look up who I know in that city... and I travel around, meet up with people and get shown around.
    If you don't have a youtube channel, you can still have friends in different cities, of course, my method (a mastermind) isn't the only one. :)
    Plus, if you're in a mastermind or community, you can ask locals for help.
    It really helps being part of an online community.
    We travel together, go to parties and help each other in business.
    So I hope that helped you get an idea of my life and how I travel 365 days a year...
